Very nice….Grandpa is smiling!

[@vandrewsan]

In a KZbin world where nearly everything has been covered repeatedly, you found something useful that needed to be covered.

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Thanks!

[@benjaqsonworkshop9974]

You say this might not be to everyone's taste then give a fascinating insight into a repair that could apply to so many kinds of outdoor objects. For a one-off repair video it's better than most other channels can 'manufacture' - and for a genuine client. The grey wash was inspired as I was wondering all the way through how you'd disguise all the new timber. Thanks for this, it was great!

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Thanks! color matching is usually a nightmare, but I think this is close enough that after a season or two outside the repairs will really blend in.

[@henrysara7716]

Thank you HB there is no boring nor silly video in your channel.

[@hefalump56]

Loved the change in pace and subject material of this video. I appreciate that you are capable of tackling anything thrown at you, with a minimum to tools. You also manage to mix things up and give great tip along the way. Thank you Caitlin. As a relatively inexperienced woodworker, most KZbinrs that have all the latest and greatest tools do not inspire me at all.

[@cabman86]

I could've used a talent like you back in the 89s when I restored old houses.

[@davidclark9086]

I have a small project concerning rotted wood and this really helps. Thanks for sharing.

[@tableshaper4076]

My personality never would have allowed me to do this, people always asked but I knew I would end up just making it new. Hats off that you are able to do this.

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Yeah, that's one of the reasons I usually avoid repair work.

[@nore8141]

This is so refreshing to see. Thanks for sharing your journey ❤❤

[@johnnyartisan8833]

As usual, I enjoyed your articulate narration of this project. Thanks. Please, update us on the finished project when it’s finally reassembled by the owner.

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

I don't think he is putting it on a wagon. He just has the seat and he said he might use it as a seat or to hold plants.

[@earlledoux9824]

I love these type of videos. Matching old joinery and color can be a challenge. You are very good at it. Lots of love.❤❤❤❤❤

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

thanks

[@grahamparsons6620]

Great video of an unusual repair, you made it look easy but we all know it’s not, it turned out great and will continue to be useful and give pleasure for many years to come 👌👌👌👍👍👍🇦🇺

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

thanks

[@jodilea144]

This was really helpful. I’m getting ready to do some repairs on a very old, handmade dresser and I plan to keep as much of the original wood as possible. Using splines will be a great solution to keep the side panels aligned where they’ve come apart over the years. You did a great job on this piece and I’m sure your client will be very pleased to have his grandfather’s work last many more years to come. 🙂

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Thanks! Dresser sounds like a cool project.

[@xoxo2008oxox]

Great repair! I'm going to do the epoxy on my exterior garage door as the knob faceplate lost screws to wood rotting from weather and using latex paint which traps moisture in the wood like a balloon. Also, I watched a wheelsmith youtuber make a mix of vinegar and 0000 wool to age wood and it works! Then when dry, spar urethane over it. Thanks for the tip and nice repair of that wagon seat!

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Oh nice thanks! I might try that to even out the color on the original wood that I had to sand a bit. I've seen similar issue with people that cover rot with flashing. It just traps moisture and then exacerbates the problem

[@allisonwoods6161]

Superb job and an excellent result. So nice to see this done with respect and care 😊

[@Tomhohenadel]

Sweet repair to this almost antique. Looks good when done.

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Thanks

[@cabman86]

This was so awesome to watch!

[@Hog-g2z]

Good morning 🌅, Honey B , I hope you are keeping safe and well, Great job, preserving the character of the bench seat, I presume recently was poppy on a small horse and cart, Probably would look nice as a piece of garden furniture, I was given a contract many years ago to restore bench seating that went round a tree, 🌳, the client wanted me just to repair it where I needed, the main problem being was the bench seat was made many years ago, and obviously the tree had grown, and pulled the bench seat apart, they ended up telling me to make a completely new bench seat, and allow for at least 20 years growth, what started out as a renovation job that was going to be reasonably cheap?, Ended up being a major construction., as they told me to make it in Oak, as you can probably gather it cost a lot of money,, Memories , keep up the great work, I hope you’re taking pictures of your work that you’re doing over the years, I know you’ve probably got it on film, but it’s nice to look back and show people what you have made over your career, good luck for the future stay safe, France.

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Yeah, I think he is hoping to use it as garden furniture. Jobs that snowball like that are always the craziest ones. Anytime I've done work on older houses that's how it goes. Sometimes replacing those old timbers reveals the craziest of things.

[@paulgriffin5572]

great job. thanks for taking us along.

[@guyvangenechten6484]

Very nice job looking very good!!!👍👌💯

[@rick91443]

Bravo. Looked pretty good finished....cheers rr

[@oilfinder]

Its fun to watch you work your magic.

[@kennethwhite8305]

Well done! I’m going to try the epoxy on my next project.

[@timcottom8397]

Hi HB, a very interesting project, great job!!! Timothy

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Thanks

[@michaelcima5772]

Fun project. Thanks

[@dennisfelix1507]

I doubt that you have much spare time to watch you tube but if you do there is a content creator in Wyoming called Engels Coach shop. Well worth watching quite the craftsman specializing in horse drawn vehicles. He has repaired some wagon seats and also built new ones from scratch. Thanks for your hard work creating your on videos!

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

That sounds super interesting. I'll have to check that out thanks!

[@odiesclips7621]

Excellent work!❤

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Thanks

[@69kaveman]

Awesome job!

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Thanks

[@michaelbissen1946]

Nice job! Lots of angles in those wagon seats. Have you ever used cypress for exterior projects?

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Yes, I really like cypress.

[@cabman86]

I found 10 boxes of square nails at the flea market one day. He had aluminum and galvanized nails too. I bought a whole box of them.

[@Tomhohenadel]

Would you please provide the epoxy you used. I have a 5’ church floor candle holder that has split on one side. Once the melted wax is removed, I thought expos would be the best option. Thoughts? Thanks

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

It's just a kit from total boat I got off amazon. Good reviews and cheaper then some other products. I like it for exterior work because of the durability. But for interior work Titebond 3 is my glue of choice.

[@Tomhohenadel]

@@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks thanks. Would titebond 3 work if there’s still a bit of wax remaining in the split. Appreciate your help

[@ricknolan1215]

Looks good... what epoxy glue do you use?

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Whatever is on sale. This is as a kit from total boat.

[@anxoalvarez8637]

Que talento🤩🤩🤩

[@jasonfaulkner3215]

Awesome

[@jimthesoundman8641]

How much did you charge him?

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

In my world . . . never enough.

[@btrswt35]

Watch those fingers on the router table. I've had situations where things have been launched across the garage so push blocks are handy.. just saying

[@cabman86]

I use polyurethane glue for outdoor projects.

[@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks]

Nice
